Navionics App Update -AIS

[Forty_Two]

If anyone is interested here are the generic Wifi settings for what the App is looking for....
Thank you for contacting Navionics.


If you don’t have any of the devices listed in compatibility guide and your Ais receiver allows setting the wifi configurations, you can use one of the below configurations known to the Navionics apps:


ip Address: “0.0.0.0” (or leave empty)

port: 2000,

protocol: "UDP"


ip Address: "192.168.15.1"

port: 39150

protocol:*“TCP”


Best regards,

Perfect thanks for that info. As soon as I set my Quark A026 to those TCP settings I was able to see AIS on my tablet Navionics.

Happy to know AIS overlay has been supported by Navionics. It works well with my Quark QK-A024 now although the receiver name shows as 'Vesper Marine' one.

Hi can you please confirm if anyone has achieved the connection on iPhone or iPad

Tried the settings above in the post but still nothing showing as connected apart from WLN Digital Yacht. Which I don’t have !!

Thanks

 

[DAVAIS]

Yes, I use iPhone 6.

Have got it working with my Yakker last night using on my Android phone:

UDP Port: 2000
IP address: 192.168.1.4

got this email today from Navionics:
Thank you for contacting Navionics and we apologize for the delay in the answer.

Please change the Yakker NMEA Wi-Fi receiver settings as below:

IP Address: 192.168.4.1

Port: 1456


Protocol: TCP

Will try it next time i'm out.

Anyone know which is better TCP or UDP

Ok all good on IPhone 5s. Navionics showing AIS Targets

Not quite as good as iNavX as the SOG and COG are not displayed as vector. This is particularly useful in the sense of ‘where will we be in 10 minutes time ‘

Thanks for all the input

I've got used to the vector display of AIS in Marine Navigator and like it (unless in a busy part of the Solent). I've been struggling to find a decent demo of the Navionics AIS overlay. Now that a year has passed since the introduction of Navionics AIS I'd be interested what people think of the information displayed. Anyone fancy feeding back?
(My motivation is I fancy heading back to the simplicity of Navionics on my new tablet, and only went with Marine Navigator and VMH because of the AIS that at the time Navionics/Garmin didn't offer)

If you download the Boat Becon app on Android you an use the free trial to feed the AIS data into Navionics and have a play
Not sure if it is available on iOS.
